Chapter 134 Star Core Dragon Elephant Hammer
Almost at the same time.
"Beep beep beep!!"
The communicators of Yao Jin, Zhang Fan, and all the Crimson Guard members simultaneously emitted an unprecedented alarm and popped up a communication request.
A light screen popped up, and on it appeared an old man wearing a deep black uniform with a dignified expression. His shoulder insignia revealed his identity: one of the members of the National Council!
"Cut to the chase. Within the last three minutes, giant spatial rifts have been detected simultaneously opening above all major human settlements, large war zones, and important cities across the globe."
"The energy index... completely exceeds the current observation limit. Preliminary assessment indicates that the energy level associated with it points to... an Immortal-grade Creature."
"Repeat, this is an Immortal-grade Creature!"
"This is not a regional event. This is a global crisis."
"Immortal Grade Ferocious Beasts... are very likely about to begin their full-scale descent. In other words, every country will face a huge crisis!"
"The number of these rifts and the sheer size of the creatures behind them far exceed anything in the past! Therefore, the opening speed of these spatial rifts is not fast; they are expected to gradually open in ten days."
"I order all war zones to immediately enter the highest state of combat readiness, preparing to deal with the descent of Immortal Creatures!"
Everyone's eyes were filled with terror!
Perhaps others still did not know what an Immortal-grade Creature actually meant!
That Abyssal-class mutant from just now, with just a piece of immortal flesh the size of a thumb, had already given them a splitting headache.
And now, the whole world is actually about to be plunged into the descent of Immortal Creatures?
How many people would die from that?
I am afraid the world is truly facing the apocalypse!
In the crowd, only Zhang Fan remained.
Not only was there no fear in his eyes, but a glimmer of excitement gradually ignited instead.
Immortal Grade?
How many Attribute Points would that be worth...?
"Immortal Grade..."
"A true world-ending level..."
Yao Jin took a deep breath. Her voice came through the communication channel: "You all heard it!"
"Immortal-grade Creatures will descend in ten days!"
"I order the entire war zone to enter the highest state of combat readiness! All units are to cancel all leave, inspect equipment, and take inventory of supplies!"
The soldiers, who were originally immersed in the joy of repelling the Abyssal Sovereign, once again became solemn and tense.
Ten days later, a greater test will arrive. Compared to that, the Abyssal Sovereign from just now is probably just an appetizer.
...
Deep Dive Research Institute.
The doorplate of the Dean's office has already been changed to "Zhang Fan".
"Not bad efficiency."
After Zhang Fan became the Dean, the most direct convenience brought by the highest research authority was that he could touch and study all the high-level Ferocious Beast corpses sent over.
[Contacting King-level Ferocious Beast corpse, gained Attribute Points +680...]
[Contacting Endowed Body Lord-level corpse, gained Attribute Points +240...]
[Contacting Overlord Class corpse, gained Attribute Points +5000...]
The notification sounds came one after another.
[Available Attribute Points: +8000]
[Total: 128000]
"Only eight thousand points..."
Zhang Fan frowned slightly. This speed was quite fast compared to before, but it was still too slow to face the upcoming Immortal-grade Creatures.
"I need to speed up the progress."
He pondered for a moment and submitted a report in his capacity as "Deputy War Zone Commander of the Zhenyuan Special Warfare Zone and Dean of the Deep Dive Research Institute".
The core content of the report was very simple: In view of the imminent Immortal Grade crisis, in order to concentrate the best scientific research power and overcome difficulties, it is recommended that "Lord-level and above" Ferocious Beast corpses obtained by the "Jiangnan Combined War Zone" and all its subordinate war zones (including the Southeast War Zone, South China War Zone, etc.) be uniformly transported to the "Zhenyuan Special Warfare Zone Deep Dive Research Institute" within 24 hours, for the highest-level centralized research and sample preservation by the Research Institute.
The reasoning was also very sufficient: The Zhenyuan War Zone has rich experience in sample processing, and its equipment is the top in the country.
After writing the report, he sent it directly to Yao Jin and carbon-copied it to the Jiangnan Combined War Zone headquarters.
...
Not long after, the report was approved by various war zones. After all, compared to the other war zones, the Deep Dive War Zone indeed has the top equipment and the most top-tier talent.
"Now, the efficiency should be able to improve."
On the afternoon the order went into effect, the first batch of transport convoys from other war zones arrived at the Research Institute. Following that were the second batch, the third batch...
The Research Institute staff were frantically busy, registering, classifying, and performing preliminary processing. As for Zhang Fan, he began his efficient "corpse touching" assembly line operation.
[Contacting Lord-level Ferocious Beast corpse, gained Attribute Points +220...]
[Contacting King-level Ferocious Beast corpse, gained Attribute Points +650...]
[Contacting Endowed Body Overlord Class corpse, gained Attribute Points +1800...]
The frequency of the notification sounds was several times higher than before!
Just after one day.
[Available Attribute Points: +12500]
"Twelve thousand five hundred in one day!" A sharp light flashed in Zhang Fan's eyes. This was the efficiency he wanted!
On the second day, the harvest was equally abundant, reaching ten thousand points.
On the third day, ten thousand points.
[Attribute Points: 178000]
And just at this moment.
"Beep beep!"
The Alliance-exclusive watch on his wrist emitted a payment arrival notification sound!
[In view of your successful killing of the complete form Abyss-level Ferocious Beast "Rock-Armored Earth Dragon", your meritorious service is outstanding, reward Contribution Points: 900000.]
[In view of your successful killing of the complete form Abyss-level Ferocious Beasts "Bone-Eroding Poison Dragon" and "Rot-Heart Demon Tree", eliminating major threats, reward Contribution Points: 900000 * 2 = 1800000.]
[In view of your successful killing of the mutant Abyssal Sovereign (fused with immortal flesh), saving the war zone, and preventing the leakage of Immortal Grade secrets, your merits are unparalleled; approved by the Supreme Council, reward Contribution Points: 1500000.]
[Your current total Contribution Points are: 4.21 million points.]
Even though Zhang Fan had been mentally prepared, his breath couldn't help but hitch!
"Good!" Zhang Fan felt incredibly delighted. It was time for a thorough equipment upgrade!
He immediately clicked on the Alliance Mall interface. First, the weapons.
"Four sky-shattering hammers, recycle!"
"star core heavy hammer, need three as backups for throwing."
[star core heavy hammer], exchange requirement: 300,000 Contribution Points/unit.
"Exchange, three units!"
[Exchange successful, consumed 900,000 Contribution Points.]
The three star core heavy hammers were quickly delivered through special channels, and Zhang Fan put them into his spatial belt.
Next, the main weapon.
"The star core heavy hammer is already a bit light for me at the Eighth Heaven, especially for my 25-meter Faxiang True Body."
He quickly browsed through the top-tier items in the mall's weapon list, the prices of which were staggering.
Finally, his gaze locked on.
[star core dragon elephant hammer].
[Description]: A heavy weapon designed specifically for practitioners of the Dragon-Elephant Series Cultivation Method. The hammer core uses high-purity "Star Core Sinking Gold", and the base weight is six times that of the star core heavy hammer! When infusing Dragon-Elephant Series Cultivation Method True Essence, the weight multiplies again, reaching up to six times the base weight!
[Exchange requirement]: 1,500,000 Contribution Points.
"This is it!" Zhang Fan did not hesitate.
